Hello,
 
We had a really good holiday in Nepal. Thanks a lot for all your help. Especially the trekking with guide and porters was great. 
 
We would be more than happy to tell other people about our experience with your organisation in a personal email. For us it was very useful to get email addresses of families who had already travelled with you before. So you can always give our address if people like to find out about our experience.
 
Best regards,
Frank and Yvonne van Maanen

Stephan,
I'm sorry for the delay in responding to you.  I've been working on updating our blog with photos as I thought I would just share this with you.  We write this to keep up with our friends and family back home.

So, a much belated thank you for your hospitality that first afternoon in Kathmandu and for the planning that went into our wonderful trip to Nepal.  You can read in the blog about our adventure, and we certainly will pass along your company's work to friends considering a trip to Nepal.

One request we have of you - as I think you know, the horse we had contracted for daily support

Thank you again for all of your help - perhaps our paths will cross again someday. 

David and Family

Poon Hill Family Lodge Trek October 2012

Gerne denken wir zurück an unseren Nepal-Urlaub. Wir waren fasziniert von der Natur, der Kultur und den freundlichen Menschen. Dank der guten Organisation und Betreuung durch SFT haben wir uns von Anfang an wohl gefühlt. Dies gilt sowohl für das Sightseeing im Kathmandu-Tal als auch für den Poonhill Trek. Auch mit den Kindern haben wir uns zu jeder Zeit sehr sicher und sehr gut betreut gefühlt. Sowohl unser Guide als auch die Träger waren sehr nett, sympathisch und hilfsbereit. Besonders bedanken möchten wir uns bei ihnen nochmal für die Organisation der Geburtstagstorte und der Kinderbetreuung während wir frühmorgens den Poonhill erklommen haben. Vielen Dank auch dir Stephan für die Gastfreundschaft und die vielen guten Tipps.
 
Insgesamt eine gelungene Reise. Gerne empfehlen wir Euch weiter und kommen auch wieder.
 
Viele Grüße
Frank, Antonia & Kinder
 

 

Poon Hill-Ghorepani-Ghandruk Circuit Family Lodge Trek, 9 Days, From 21-December to 29-December -2016

Dear Stephan

Thank you so, so much for a wonderful holiday. We trekked the Poon Hill circuit with our two young children. It was so brilliant. Our guide, Modern, was very gentle and wonderful with the kids. Our daughter choose to walk with him every day, saying he was better at helping her down the steep bits than I was :) Our kids also loved Caloo our surefooted mountain pony who helped carry the kids when their legs got too tired!!!The horseman was fantastic. Our porters looked after us so well. All the staff were helpful, kind and really just fantastic and helped make our trip brilliant.Every part of the trip was well planned and executed. We did not have to worry about anything and could just enjoy the mountains and the people we met.

I would highly recommend Swiss Family Treks, Take your kids and go trekking with this great company

Thank you
Kind regards

Trek Family Day Hiking Trip around Pokhara Valley from Himalayan Deurali Resort (Nagdanda) with Chitwan Tour and Half Day River Rafting , 9 Days

We stumbled upon the Swiss Family Treks website while researching family friendly Nepal holidays. We are so grateful that we chose them as our tour facilitators.  Their friendly, prompt and detailed responses throughout our pre-trip communication was professional and appreciated.  Our guides (Deepak and Hem) were outstanding: friendly, knowledgable, great with our children, flexible and helpful. We enjoyed each part of our itinerary immensely. Our itinerary was created keeping the young ages of our children in mind and Stefan did a great job with his recommendations and suggestions.  Our family adventure to Nepal was one of the best vacations we have ever taken. The hotels were clean and simple, and we were informed that the restaurants suggested were already visited by Swiss Family Treks to ensure high standards. Stefan and his team did an amazing job planning and executing our adventure and we are beyond grateful for their efforts. It was also a treat for our family to dine with Stefan and Viana in their beautiful, warm home - what a special touch:-).

Nepal is a beautiful and special place - it will not be our last visit there and it definitely will not be our last booking with Swiss Family Treks.  I would recommend them to any of my friends, family or acquaintances. Thank you for making our trip a truly memorable one.

Jomolhari combined with Druk Path Trek and Tour 13 Days, 9 November to 21 November 2014

Dear Stephan and SFT team,

For the second time you’ve now organized a fantastic trek in the Himalaya for us, and we are glad to count on your reliable and professional services for our next trek in the area. Bhutan is a beautiful country and the combined 10 days Jomolhari — Druk Path trek was amazing. We got a first impression of the country’s deep spiritualism when we hiked up to the Tiger Nest on the first day — a monastery perched high up in the cliffs over Paro valley.

On the trek we enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Bhutanese and Tibetan mountain range. Yaks were grazing high up in the mountains and we got the chance to spot many blue sheep. We also realized quite soon that our mules always preferred to graze just in front of our tent…
Thanks to our guide Tserten Dorji & team we had a great time in Bhutan and learnt a lot about this peaceful Buddhist kingdom in the Himalaya.

We hope to be back in the Himalaya soon.
